Counselling for Surrey, with Camille
Camille works with clients in Surrey entirely by secure video. What changes is what getting to an appointment in person would have cost you, and that is the part this removes.
A city big enough to have counsellors, where the one who fits may still be somewhere else in BC.
BC Association of Clinical Counsellors keeps a public register, so you can check Camille’s registration yourself before a consultation in Surrey.
- First 15-minute consultation free, by video, with no obligation to book afterwards
- Individual counselling, $140 for 50 minutes
- Couples counselling, $175 for 50 minutes, or extended $340 for 110 minutes
- EMDR, $140 for 50 minutes, or intensive $190 for 90 minutes
Paid at booking, with a receipt for your extended health plan; whether your plan reimburses it depends on the plan. Fees and coverage.
Surrey is one of the fastest-growing cities in Canada, and its counsellors work across private practices, community agencies and Fraser Health services, each with openings that change from month to month. Seeing one in person also means time away from work to get there; by video, counsellors elsewhere in BC join the choice and the travel drops out.
It is also a city that works shifts: healthcare, the airport, warehousing, care work. A standing Tuesday at two does not survive a rotating roster, and an appointment you keep missing turns into an appointment you stop booking. Sessions by video, at a time picked from what the counsellor has open, remove the part that was breaking.
Her focus is trauma, anxiety and chronic stress, grief, loss and life transitions. Sessions run in English or Tagalog, including moving between them within one session.

Why a video session suits Surrey
- No one sees you attend, The most common reason people here choose virtual over a local clinic. No waiting room, no building, no chance encounter.
- Continuity if you move, Registration covers all of BC, so a move to Abbotsford, Vancouver, or anywhere in the province does not end the work.
- English or Tagalog, Including moving between them inside one session, which is how most bilingual people actually think.
Sessions in English or Tagalog
Camille works in English and Tagalog, including moving between them inside one session. For a lot of people that is the difference between explaining a feeling and being understood the first time, and it does not require travelling to a bigger city to find it.
What Camille works with
Trauma
Difficult or overwhelming experiences, worked through at a pace you set, building safety and a sense of control first, rather than going straight at the hardest thing.
Anxiety and chronic stress
The patterns underneath high-functioning anxiety, perfectionism and burnout. The kind almost nobody around you can see, because you are still delivering.
Grief, loss and life transitions
Room for the changes you chose and the ones you did not: endings, identity shifts, and the uncertainty that arrives with them.
Camille may suit you if you are
- Anxious, overwhelmed, burnt out, or running on empty
- In the middle of a big change, a relationship, a move, a loss
- Carrying something from before that still shapes how you feel and how you are with people
- Tired of perfectionism, people-pleasing, or never quite feeling like enough
- Trying to make sense of yourself alongside culture, family expectations, and what got handed down
- Disconnected from your body, your feelings, or who you actually are
- Wanting better relationships and boundaries that hold
- Looking for someone who brings warmth and practical tools, not just listening
You do not need to have everything figured out before you start. Sometimes knowing that something is not working any more is enough of a reason to begin.
Questions people in Surrey ask
Will anyone in my family find out?
No. Counselling is confidential, and whether you tell anyone is entirely your decision. Because sessions are virtual there is no clinic to be seen entering. The only limits on confidentiality are risk of serious harm and a court order.
I live with family and have no private space. What do people do?
This is one of the most common practical questions here, and there are workable answers, a parked car, a session scheduled during a work break from the office, headphones and a closed door. It is worth raising on the consultation call so it can be solved before the first session rather than during it.
I am the first person in my family to consider therapy. Where do I even start?
That is the most common position people arrive in from Surrey, and there is no template because the generation before did not have one either. A free 15-minute consultation is a reasonable place to work out what you are actually looking for, with no obligation attached, and if somebody else would be a better fit, you would be told that plainly.
Can sessions be in Tagalog?
Yes: in English or Tagalog, or moving between them as the conversation needs. Most people switch without planning to, particularly when something is hard to say, and nothing about the session requires picking one and staying there.
Surrey has plenty of counsellors. Why look outside it?
For many people there is no reason to, and you would be told so on the consultation. The reason people write in from Surrey is narrower: in a community this interconnected, the counsellor who comes recommended is often connected to the very people you would least want to know you are going. Confidentiality is a legal duty everywhere, distance is what makes it feel true.
For what working in Tagalog means for someone in Surrey, the practice’s page on Tagalog counselling in Surrey covers it.
